About the series

Created by Aaron Guzikowski, The Red Road is an American drama television series that follows the life of a New Jersey police officer, as he tries to keep his family together, while dealing with a dangerous Native American tribe that has found refuge in the neighboring mountains. A SundanceTV original series, The Red Road season 2 premiered on April 2, 2015.

Harold Jensen has had quite a negative streak – his wife is a recovering alcoholic and schizophrenic, who has self-medicated herself for quite some time. At the same time he’s come into a conflict with a federally unrecognized tribe member and ex-con who threatens to disrupt the peace of a small town across the Hudson from New York City. Throughout the series, Jensen tries to not compromise his principles that are torn apart by polarized views of his home town, all while tending to his wife and keeping his family together.

Current season, ratings and renewal chances

Although The Red Road has received largely positive reviews and scores 66% on Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic, as well as 7.4 out of 10 on IMDb, the producers decided to not go forward and canceled the series after the second season. Fans can still catch the show on online streaming sites, but unless producers have a change of heart, Red Road season 3 will not be returning to SundanceTV.

This is or was a great series . Why get people intested if your not gonna continue or at least give it an ending not just a cliffhanger . Truth is the network doesn't care what they're viewers think but I sure wish they would come back with season 3 even if it's to have a series finale finale .

Ditto! I don't even watch anything new anymore bcuz they keep dumping after one season! My heart has been broken too many times. I hope they can put something in when the writers come back - highly rated shows (red road, Aquarius, Santa Clarita, rez dog just to name a few) don't get an ax. They aren't being watched at first bcuz nobody wants to get into a show and get dumped. Streaming has definitely given execs way more power and that power should go to the artists. Ugh just [censored]es me off to no end!

My guess is the cost of Jason Mamoa probably blew out their production budget. This was about the time he had been tagged for Aquaman. Last time I checked, SundanceTV money didn't compare to DC Comics money.

Just finished today. Beyond disappointed that they have no season 3. I want to know what happened. There was no ending and it was left for the Cliffhanger which is [censored]ty for viewers that got hooked. A lot of things came to light in season 2, but so much more to go the decision 3 should be addressed. At least every other series that I've seen there was some kind of an ending where this one does not have one. I want to know how it all turns out. Makes me not want to watch things on this network if they can't follow through. I hope others feel the same way. [angry]

Just now seen this in Netflix. This is a great show and it takes alot for me to get interested in a show. This show kept my attention through both seasons. It is sad that there will not be a 3rd season I was really looking forward to it.

I would like to know the reason WHY? The Red Road was cancelled. All I have been able to find was that it had been cancelled but doesn't give the Reason why. Was it due to ratings or what? What is the reason for the cancellation? It was a good show and people seemed to like it, so what was the reason? Please let me know.

It wasn't for the ratings, average among some sites, it was scoring an average of 7.8 out of 10. I haven't been able to find a reason either. My thinking is of you can't find the reason, then it must be private as to why. Get it was something stupid. Always is ?
